Description: In this book there are women. Strong women, fighters, with dreams and hopes. Women whose life was tricked by the simple fact of being women, Women like so many others who live in this country of three million inhabitants, where three are killed per month. These pages tell the story of Dayana Yeyé, Melissa Ruggiero, Lola Chomnalez, Analía Perdomo, Valeria Sosa, Marta Martínez, Ofelia Chéchile, and also a story with a different ending, that of Cinthya Silvera. They faced the most terrible face of our society, the one that hurts us the most to see and accept: gender violence. César Bianchi, from an exhaustive investigation and showing a great narrative pulse, builds seven captivating and moving stories that allow us to exercise fear and recover hope in the midst of so much pain.
